The last paragraph mentions the USS Excelsior taking James T. Kirk into custody. Was this in an alternate universe or what? Anybody? – AT2Howell 01:12, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
- The source is stated. The Mirror Universe Saga from DC Comics. --Turtletrekker 02:46, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
- I moved it into an alternate universes section; does that help?--Long Live the United Earth 02:51, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
- I don't see any reason why it should be considered an alternate universe at all. These events are included in the entries of James T. Kirk and Spock without any difficulty whatsoever. While the movies never did anything to confirm the DC Comics adventures between ST3 & 4, neither do they say anything to deny or contradict them either. The only thing said is said in the movies about the time inbetween movies is that the crew is "three months into their Vulcan exile", a comment that works just as well coming after ST 3 or The Doomsday Bug. This is no diferent from when someone came in and try to say that Star Trek: Enterprise's depiction of Andorian Genders contradicted what the novels had said, which is also not so. If this is considered to be "alternate" then so should everything else that we do here as well. This is the "Non-canon Star Trek Wiki" and as such, we shouldn't get hung up on "canon" (which is a meaningless classification at any rate). Should the events in Nog's entry from the Starfleet Academy comic be labeled as "alternate"? Or the events from Star Trek: Early Voyages from Christopher Pike's entry? Of course not. Where there are contradictions, they should, of course, be noted, but I don't see that as being any different here than any other entry that has a contradiction noted without being considered "alternate". --Turtletrekker 03:29, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
- A) calm down I was just trying to help. B) fine I will remove the section heading and you may note the difference if you wish. C) I agree with you that canon is a meaningless classification, but it is still important because that is what happened in the series, and without it I wouldn't be typing stuff on this wiki
- well, I don't know what the "calm down" crack is supposed to mean, as I simply stated my case, and did so without any snark or rudeness as far as I can tell, I just disagreed with teh label "alternate".--Turtletrekker 03:50, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
